Dolan, Conor V.; Schmittmann, Verena D.; Lubke, Gitta H.; Neale, Michael C. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2005
A linear latent growth curve mixture model is presented which includes switching between growth curves. Switching is accommodated by means of a Markov transition model. The model is formulated with switching as a highly constrained multivariate mixture model and is fitted using the freely available Mx program. The model is illustrated by analyzing…

Song, Xin-Yuan; Lee, Sik-Yum – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2006
In this article, we formulate a nonlinear structural equation model (SEM) that can accommodate covariates in the measurement equation and nonlinear terms of covariates and exogenous latent variables in the structural equation. The covariates can come from continuous or discrete distributions. A Bayesian approach is developed to analyze the…
